While this won’t have nearly as much of the same stakes as the ‘84 Big East Tournament Championship Game, you have to imagine the Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team has tomorrow’s matchup versus the Georgetown Hoyas marked, highlighted, and labeled on their calendars.
Syracuse (5-4, 1-0) is looking for its third-straight win after back-to-back victories against Notre Dame and Oakland, while the Hoyas are hoping to just get going in what’s been another dismal year in the Patrick Ewing era.
Here are our predictions against Georgetown:

Syracuse 78, Georgetown 71
